Payment

It is the responsibility of all University of New Haven students to pay their tuition and fee bill by the published due date.  If payment is not received by the designated due date, students may be assessed a late fee and a financial hold may be placed on their student account.  This hold will prevent students from accessing certain university services such as registering for classes, requesting transcripts, viewing grades, and receiving a diploma.  The administrative hold is only removed after the outstanding balance is paid in full.  Students have the option to enroll in a monthly installment plan which is available through the Bursar's Office.  Please visit their website for further information.

Should a bill remain outstanding for an extended period of time, the account will be referred to an outside collection agency and an additional collection fee will be added to the balance due. The student will be responsible for paying this additional fee. The account will also be reported to a national credit bureau.

NOTE: Students are responsible for payment of tuition to the University, even though they may be eligible for their employer's tuition reimbursement plan. Students are responsible for making arrangements with their employers for reimbursement.
